The guy with the tie has straighter looking teeth and a fatter nose.

OK here's why. I was trying to decide if I should bid on this ebay auction.

I'd say they're both Charles Lindbergh, but the one on the right would be his older self (post-Transatlantic flight).

No. The eye shape and smile look a little different to me.

You know, for under $20, I'd say its an interesting enough picture to frame and hang in the laundry room. I wouldn't gamble for more than that though.

Why would a person want a picture of Charles Lindbergh?

Just curious?

I agree with Bn. I think its Lindbergh but at a slightly different age.

I worked with a guy, now sadly passed, that was the absolute spitting image of Jefferson.

Because he was a relative, you are big fan, or you are doing research, maybe you are working on his biography?

Would you hang the picture in your home, or put it in a scrap book of other Lindbergh memorabilia that you have collected?

Maybe you named a child after him?

just trying to imagine reasons why someone might want the picture?

@joepyeweed

This is at E. High Point Road on the city's north side, close to Kellar Field. Before he was famous, Lindbergh flew mail for Robertson Aircraft Corporation, and was pilot on the first mail run to stop at Peoria on April 15, 1926.

@bn, Yes I've seen that. Maybe JNJ's picture was for the historical society? or a Lindberg exhibit at the museum or something ? I know she is connected to the museum and such.

@bn13814 It is my understanding that: He flew a regular daily mail route from St. Louis to Springfield, to Peoria and on to Chicago, then back to St. Louis. The flashing light at the top of the Commerce Bank Building, called "Lindy's light" helped him navigate. Please correct me if I'm wrong or if you want to fill in more details.

@joepyeweed : I collect Peoria related historical memorabilia. Maybe some day we can have a looky-loo party.
